front of the hotels as two streets can possibly
be- The old road was red and dusty with
ruts in it and tumble-down fences along it,
and a succession of shabby old summer
houses, given over to hotel servants, along
the seaside edge OF it, for the town govern
ment of Long Branch does next to nothing
toward making the place attractive.
But now, on the new or Elberon road, all
is changed. The roadway is splendid one
and intersects beautiful parks, noble lawns,
exquisite gardens and well-kept plots, from
above each of which rises lovely mansion,
the home of famous family. Here the
widow of General Grant lives with Mr..
George W. Childs, of Philadelphia, for
neighbor. Millionaires too plenty for men
ton touch elbows thus until, when all their
homes are passed, one comes to the retiring,

Element of pretty houses rented by rich New
Workers, Philadelphians and Baltimoreans,
and surrounding two separated, glass-walled
buildings jointly called the Hollywood
Hotel In the hotel the cottagers meet to
dine to enjoy entertainments and to be So
cial, and half a mile away on the beach
they have another rendezvous-the finest
bath-house in America. This bath-house is
a pier-but such pier! 1t has an elegant
parlor, two-story, covered but otherwise
open and airy, lounging place fitted with
East India cane furniture and great num-
Der of bathrooms, each with dressing-room
opening into it, and each carpeted and fur
nished so that the most dainty and fashion,
able belle may robe or disrobe amid both
comfort and luxury. 1t is a bath and club
house combined and, like all the rest of Hol-

Mr.. John Hoey, the rich president of an
express company whose grand park, con-
tanning the most extensive display of floral
beauty in America, is open to all visitors
and is one of the notable sights at Long
Branch.
At Hollywood and Elberon and on the
drive beyond the old hotels we have seen

and a-half's time, and 50 cents passage
money, of the metropolis, opened the place
to the masses; second, that the strict enforce
ment of anti-gambling laws in New York
State made Long Branch especially attract
i've to the wicked, because it is the only near
watering place outside the State, and what
ever the laws are they are not enforced there.
There was and is no such thing as killing
Long Branch. We shall see why presently.
Therefore the change that has taken place
and transformed it from the Summer Capital
of Government to the Summer Capital of
Sporting simply had the effect of driving the
rich and respectable out of the hotels Of the
old part of the town into cottages of their
own in a new part The consequence is that
tits now the most varied, mixed, strongly-con-
trasted and in all probability the most en-
tertaining seacoast resort in the country. 1t
is like Saratoga in the variety Of its attrac-
tons, and when it has few more stores and
the new ultra-fashionable hotel that is pro-
iected it will outrival Saratoga in all that
now makes ''the springs the metropolis OF
summer resorts.
Long Branch has two grand qualities that
make it superior to all the other coast re-
sorts. In the first place it is on the edge OF
the richest and one of the most beautiful
agricultural counties in the United States. In
place of the marshes that lie behind Coney
island, Rockaway, Atlantic City and Cape
Nav or the uninviting regions back OF
Narragansett Pier, Nantasket and Bar Har-
Dor, Long Branch is at the gates OF rural
paradise of rich farms, pretty villages, lovely
rivers and elegant summer houses ana parks
all interlaced with roads excelled only in the
suburbs of Baltimore and Chicago. In that
lies perpetual strength for Long Branch; in
that and in the sea breeze. Ut course every
beach boasts of its breezes and really possesses
them-cooling, reviving, tonic winds that

Disciplining the Cub.

On the train crossing the Rocky noun
tains I heard teamster tell about mother
bear and her cub, giving good example to
human mothers in family government
This man was going up the mountain for
pine logs driving wagon. On the top of a
large rock by the shade of the road was a
young bear, the mother having started up
the mountain on the approach of the team.
THE cub looked so cute, y said the teamster
living there with its paws dropping over the
edge Of the rock, watching the horses as they
came up. Presently the old bear came bound
ing back to the cub, and giving it nudge
with her nose, started up the mountain
again, expecting the young one to follow.
But the cub made no move. The old bear
then came back the second time and, taking
up the cub in her arms, gave him several
cuffs. This time thscub obeyed orders and
followed the cid bear in gallop up the side
of the mountain ''-Our Dumb Anana0ls.

make the wilted, half-suffocated, perspirlng
slaves of our cities become like new men and
women once they feel old Neptune tanning
them. But lovers of Long Branch claim for
that beach stronger, cooler and more regu-
lar breeze than any other resort enioys-a
vigorous, sustained, refrigerated wind that
does not fail to stitfen the flags and start the
awnings Tapping every afternoon before four
o'clock Just in time to meet the first train
loads of men quitting the oven-llke city
and to make them vow, as they feel 1t raise
their falling strength, that the Branch has
got monopoly of cool air.
If YOU have not been at Long Branch at
lust that time, to see the wizard effect of that
ocean breeze, fear you will scarcely believe
the truth about it. But let's lead up to it as
a climax by viewing the place as it is before
the breeze electrifies it. Two sleepy little
villages lie doing in the sun, one the upper
pole" the other the Clover pole so-called
from the hagstaffs that used to rise out OF
their midst From these the main road leads
to the beach, the bluff and the hotels. The
avenue on the bluff is red road, SO strongly
is the earth impregnated with iron. few
tennis-players move languidly on the lawns
in the cool shadows of the hotels, and men
and women are lolling on the shaded bat
comics and porches, but out in the sun
scarcely anything of life is moving. Now
and then stage rolls along the road or an
excursion steamer discharges black multi
tude of dlers, who are instantly lost IN the
beer gardens and pavilions on and near the
pier, or descend to the beach and crowd III
the cool shadow of the great iron wharf. If
YOU take stage and ride past one after
another of the dozen great caravanseries that
face the sea you will realize that Long Branch
is a great place, capable of entertaining a
mighty host, but you will imagine it host
of sleepers or deserters. At the West End
Hotel, the last and finest Of the hotels of old
Long Branch. the road will turn and you
will pass half around the great hotel to
another avenue parallel with the sea, and
beginning with magnificent cottage sur
rounded by inviting awnings, mighty tropic
plants and beautiful native flowers. This,
YOU will be told, is Phil. Days gambling
house-they make no bones of these things
there Then your journey will take you
along an avenue as different from the one in
St. Landry democrat., 1887-07-02

theatres, restaurants of all grades museums
and dancing halls. 1t is only a question of
time. The masses must be entertained.
The change is being made already and soon
Long Branch will be place for all, exclusive,
rich, vicious, poor, the masses and the fash
ionable That it will have business portion
like Saratoga any one can see who notes how
rapidly the stores along the main street OF
the upper and lower villages are swelling
and spreading out
But all through our journey we have seen
every street and place stagnant. Presto!
The breeze from the sea pours in upon the
people. 1t unwraps the flags and stitfens
them in the air; it dstends the curtains IN
the parlors; it rushes through the corridors
and halls; it electrities everyone, touching
the whole population as with a. magic wand
and filling it with activity. The people pour
out Of the hotels: the roads TEEN with
